Your Mortgage & Savings: Bank of England’s Impossible Choice

Your energy bill just went up. So did petrol, and in this video I'll explain the strange link between a war in the Middle East and the question you're probably asking right now: will rates go higher, or finally start to fall? The Bank of England responded to the Strait of Hormuz closure by publishing three distinct scenarios instead of a single forecast, and in this video we borrow that framework to make up our own minds. I'll walk through what each scenario means for your mortgage and your savings, show you the three signals the MPC itself is watching, and tell you which scenario I think is most likely and what I'm doing about it.
